This is almost a hobby, not a video game ...

As in the previous game, the King of All Cosmos has destroyed the stars in the sky, and it is up to the Prince to go to Earth and roll up objects into a "katamari" -- a kind of sticky ball that grows as you attach things to it -- so that new stars can be built.

Unlike its predecessor, We Love Katamari has relatively few "standard" stages. Instead, most of the stages give you some kind of specific challenge -- rolling with a burning katamari without letting its fire go out, rolling entirely underwater, getting as large as you can with a finite number of objects, and so forth.

As a result it is rather harder.

Nevertheless, if you've played and enjoyed the first game and want more challenges, this is the way to go. Fun new stages (and way more of them), a much larger World stage, and lots of weird and freaky challenges to try.

Roll your heart out as fast as you can!

About the seller - I would definitely recommend & buy from again!

On to the product -
Katamari seems like a very fun game. Just roll up as much as you can in the time alloted.
Unfortunately, after you pass the first two stages, you really need to have absolutely mastered the fast roll technique or you can't pass the other levels. I actually went and bought a brand new controller with tighter analog controls - and it did help a little bit, but not enough.
Load times are decent. You see the King's head floating and mumbling something. A different something all the time! ^_^

This is a cute game. A good way to spend a rainy afternoon!

"We Love Katamari" is the first sequel to the smash-hit game, "Katamari Damacy". The game is much like "Damacy", in that the aim of the game is to roll things up with your Katamari. However, the format is a bit different, in that, instead of rolling things up entirely for the King of All Cosmos, you are rolling things up for your "fans". The story is also about the life and childhood of the King of All Cosmos, as opposed to a random family.

The game has much of the same charm and overall weirdness of "Damacy". Its music selection is much broader; however, it seems that this is a somewhat harder game than the original, so be prepared.

Fun Game

You might not like cleaning up your room, your house in real life. Well, you get your chance in this fantasy world, whatever you see can be picked up by this magical ball you roll. It sorts of tell you "size matters" compare to everything in our life. It is a fun game.

WAY OVERRATED!

I'm lost as to why so many people LOVE Katamari!? This is a horrible game for anyone over the age of 3. I played this game for a total of 15 min. and turned it off. I wish I could have those 15 min. of my life back. After 1 min. I was shocked it stunk so bad, considering all of the good reviews, but then I decided to give it 14 more min. just to see if it got any better. Well it didn't. Rolling a ball around of junk and collecting more junk to add to the ever growing ball is plain idiotic and boring to me. I still can't believe how boring and stupid this game was, as well as how incredibly bizarre it was! You roll up various things in a ball, while listening to the horrible japanese techno playing in the background.

I've played thousands of games in my 24 years of life, and "We Love (I Hate) Katamari" is in my bottom 5. In conclusion, I think most of the reviewers must have been on drugs while playing because "We Love Katamari" is garbage or it should only be used as a paper weight or used to freak out some old folks!

Fun= -5 stars (if I could give it negative stars), Overall= 2, only because the graphics weren't terrible, they were just bad, and I do give the game credit, somewhat, for being original.

Brainsplosions!

This is the funniest game yet - anyone who gives it 3 stars or less is a FUN CRUSHER!!

More spectacularly weird fun

Namco's Katamari Damacy proved to be a big surprise hit when released stateside, and We Love Katamari provides more of the same spectacularly weird fun. If you played the first game, then you'll have no trouble getting into We Love Katamari, as not much at all has changed in the overall gameplay. You are still rolling around a nicely sized sticky ball collecting all kinds of stuff to get bigger, and bigger, and bigger; and it's still tons of enjoyable fun. There are a few new twists on the Katamari formula though, including rolling a sumo wrestler over food items to get him fatter, as well as rolling planets, stars, and constellations to get big enough to roll up the sun. While the game still provides the same amount of fun, We Love Katamari also suffers from what Katamari Damacy did, the game is too short for its own good. That aside, We Love Katamari is every bit as fun and trippy as its predecessor, and if you loved rolling your katamari around last time as much as everyone else who ate up the game, picking this up is a no brainer.

It's Katamari!

Better than the original, this game is everything that you come to expect out of Katamari Damaci.

The only gripe I have about this particular title is the 2 player mode, you've only a short amount of time per game, and it would be nice to get to play a little longer. But aside from that, this is a solid title that deserves it's spot in your collection.

awesome game!

More Katamari fun...

More of the same as before, but now you can work together. It's not as hard as some describe unless the person you're playing with really doesn't think like you. Can't wait to open more vs modes, as we're only stuck with 2 options. Overall, a great addition if you liked the first one.
